Our Birth Journeys: Legoland and Sea Life Aquarium Kansas City
http://ourbirthjourneys.blogspot.com/2015/06/legoland-and-sea-life-aquarium-kansas.html
Saturday, June 27, 2015. Legoland and Sea Life Aquarium Kansas City. It's been a while since I posted. So much is going on, and I'll talk more about that in another post. We had such a fun trip the other day! They were so excited. We drove around for a while looking for parking, and finally decided to pay for parking at Union Station. We then went to Crown Center and I got some of the kids to pose with the Lego people. There was so much to do in there. There were rides to go on. I was just amazed at this...

Wednesday, May 14, 2014. I found a basic truffle recipe online. I changed it up a little and added my placenta powder to it. A definite way to go with this. 8 ounces semi-sweet or bitter-sweet chocolate morsels. 1/2 cup heavy cream. 1/2 tsp good vanilla extract. 1/2 tsp dried or fresh mint leaves (if fresh, mince very small) *optional*. 2 Tbsp powdered sugar. 1 Tbsp dried placenta powder. 1/4 cup powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and chopped walnuts.

Sunday, October 26, 2014. My first attempt at henna. It took me half the day to get the nerve up to get my henna practice in. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but I knew I wanted to practice on my foot first. I filled my cones this morning, then I set them to the side. I pulled up YouTube and found myself watching henna tutorial videos for a couple hours. Finally, I got baby Z in bed, and I decided to go for it. How bad could it look? I decided it didn't look finished, so I continued on.

Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Starting Over - Week 1 Day 1 C25K. I took a couple months off from running to try to recover from my foot injury from July. I just kept reaggrivating it. I needed to let it heal. So, on Monday I started over on C25K. I don't see it as a step back, since I had made it to week 10 of the 10K Trainer. I see it as a review. Don't mind my nails.*. My view of my running partner/hubby. Links to this post. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Every New Beginning Comes From Some Beginnings End.

Saturday, December 6, 2014. How to track your ovulation to get pregnant. Links to this post. Friday, December 5, 2014. He fixed what was broken. During my time of loving my baby through the dark, sleepless night, I listened to him sing with his little on my shoulder. I thought about how much had changed since I found myself pregnant with him. When I was in labor, I was vocal. I made a noise that Hannah said sounded like I was singing opera. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This is where I ...

Our Birth Journeys: I Have A Strange Addiction
http://ourbirthjourneys.blogspot.com/2015/07/i-have-strange-addiction.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. I Have A Strange Addiction. I have a collection of essential oils, oil diffusers, cooking items/gadgets/skillets, several French Presses (super since I break mine off and on), about 25 pounds of coffee, food and spices, canning equipment. I have clothes I've reviewed, amber teething necklaces, toys (kid and adult), cloth diapers, baby wraps and ring slings. Then a Kindle Fire HD. Now that I'm a top ranked reviewer, I can pitch for bigger stuff! Toady I got my projector!

Saturday, June 21, 2014. Starting Over - C25K Week 1 Days 1 and 2. It's been close to a year since I last ran. Last Thursday I decided to start up C25K again. I did day 2 of Focus T25 that morning, and then ran day 1 of C25K that evening. It was hard, but I didn't stop! I was so excited! I had done it! Baby Z is 8 weeks, and I'm getting my body back! I weighed myself that morning. I always weigh myself undressed, before eating, but after going to the bathroom. 148.4 pounds! I am under 150! Hips - 39.5.

Friday, October 10, 2014. WHY Did I Say Yes? So, I jumped into a fall themed gift swap. What am I going to make? I'm thinking of making cinnamon/spice scented hot pads. They are fun, and they smell super good! I have another idea in the works. I'll keep you posted. Links to this post. Homemade Apple Cider Vinegar. I'm doing a recipe someone I know shared. My batch is smaller than hers, though. She had 3 gallons. I only have 1. Add 1/3 cup sugar to each 1/2 gallon (2/3 cup per gallon). Links to this post.

Thursday, June 26, 2014. The positive of day 1 is that there are only 6 runs, instead of the 8 in week 1. I love that. It was a test of willpower. On my 4th run I was really wanting to stop. It didn't help that it was all uphill. At least I timed it to where I would walk as soon as it got flat. Ha ha! I didn't stop, even though I wanted to! Oh I weighed myself this morning. 145.
